Each week brings an absolute barrage of new games for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch, but it can be difficult to pick out of the cream of the crop by looking at a mass of icons and titles. Luckily, we’re tuned in to the most notable releases, and we’ll be presenting a small stack of them with this column. Each week, you’ll find a diverse array of free and paid games across a variety of genres, and we’ll highlight the unique aspects of each, as well as anything that seems like it might be a barrier to enjoyment.
A couple of slick action affairs headline the week’s offering – tactical shooter Breach & Clear, and aerial dogfighting sequel Sky Gamblers: Cold War — though other intriguing options like same-screen iPad multiplayer curio Gentlemen! and “bullet hell” shooter Sine Mora are available, alongside new Pac-Man, Bloons, and Archie games. Be sure to keep an eye out for full reviews of some of these titles in the coming days, and then check back next Thursday for an all-new list of notable games to consider.
